1. I became a caregiver through the inspiration of my late mother. She was in a vegetative state for almost 2 yrs. due to massive stroke. Reinvented myself from working in the corporate world (banking) to moving in the healthcare field. It's a different experience where one found joy and accomplishment working with the elderly. My salary rate is negotiable depending on client's needs.
2. Being a caregiver is very personal to me.. My focus is always to deal with the well-being & safety of my client.
3. Being a caregiver entails a lot of patience, compassion and experience to be able to understand every client's specific needs. . I try to keep a balance of everything I do to maintain my physical and psychological well-being.
4. I consider myself as energetic, strong-willed and resourceful. In my former job I was the lead CNA supervising 3 caregivers working 12 hrs. shift 24/7 in our client's own home. My relationship with my client & the family I've worked with has been very pleasant. Blessed to work with families that trust my work ethics and the care I provide for their loved ones.

1) I am a compassionate person and greatly care to improve the environment to assist the client.
2) It is a rewarding experience to see the client flourish with the care that is being provided.
3) Challenging myself to develop new skills daily.
4) I greatly appreciate an ethical, healthy, and encouraging environment both as a team player and as a care provider.

I became a cna because my great grandma who raised me became a diabetic and had to have both of her legs amputated. I was around 11or 12. She learned how to walk with new prostetics and her walker. Also I had to administer her insulin at times. She passed shortly after I turned 18. I dedicated my life to her.

I have been working in the medical field for over 25 years..I became a caregiver to my first clientt in 2011 and soon realized I was meant to do Caregiving to our Special Seniors or whomever may need this type of care .My first client eventually was in a nursing home for a period of 1 month. During that time, I had the desire to return to school and became a CNA. I truly enjoyed all the training and the experience that I received. I acquired a job with Visiting Angels in 2013. I have had some awesome experiences working with our senior citizens. I also have a daughter who is now 18 and has had a medical condition since she was 5 months old. I believe all of the experiences that I have had help me to be
a very compassionate caregiver to my clients and my clients family. I at times have stayed in touch with family members even after their loved one has passed away.

1. I feel that it is my gift and my calling, and I want to use my talents to bless others.
2. At the end of the day, I feel accomplished if I've helped those around me who need me to be there for them whether it be an emotional or physical need.
3. One of my biggest achievements and joys was being able to be there with both of my parents at the end of their lives to provide the loving care and meet their every need. Something I will always be proud of is the fact that neither of my parents had to be taken care of by anybody but their daughter.
4. I am a woman who loves to be with her family. I enjoy cooking, gardening, hiking and spending time with my daughters. I am always looking to learn new things because I have a strong belief that it's important to keep learning to stay young. One of my learning adventures included becoming a state certified ombudsman and using that talent to visit local nursing facilities. The more I spend time in these nursing homes, the more I want to help the elderly be able to stay in their homes and receive care in their own environment.

I am native to San Jose, I am a 3rd generation born in San Jose. I have been in the medical field for 38yrs. 25 yrs just doing home care. Caring for the elderly and being an advocate for them has been in my heart for many years. I have enjoyed working with them and have been blessed to share many of their journeys. I have encountered hundreds of elderly over the years, and have learned much from them. As the years pass, I will continue to serve those who are sick, elderly, or are coming to an end of their own journey. All though I prefer a live-in position, I am also available for hourly work at this time, with a 6 to 8 hr. minimum a day. If you have any additional questions for me, please feel free to ask.

hello! I was a certified nursing assistant for 6 years and then I wanted to switch to one on one care. I've been caring for a woman in her home for 2 years now and it's definitely where I needed to be! I love being that support and friend that she needs and I can't wait to experience more of that! Caring for elderly is a passion of mine, and between working at a nursing facility and in private care, I feel that being home is the best option for them. I pride myself on giving the best care that I can, so they can be home as long as possible and have a high quality of life. That's the best place for them to be and I love being a part of allowing that to happen [?]

I am 35 years old, also I am a fast learner.
I have had experience with Special Education for 13 years at The Monterey County Office of Education. For the last two years, I have been in college in order to obtain a new career set as an Occupational Therapist.
I feel that due to my history of experience in providing compassionate care for individuals (children), I would like to give this a try. I come from a family of nurses and I am willing to learn.
I have medical training in tracheotomy, breathing tubes, and CPR/First Aid.
I have an exemplary history of dependability in attendance, and I am a compassionate companion.

I became a caregiver because compassion and the value of human connections come natural to me. It is a great thing to make a positive difference in someone's life.
Some of the best things about being a caregiver are the people that I get to meet and bond with. Being able to earn a living in a home environment holds core values to me and enriches my life.
Some of my personal achievements are my skill at playing piano, and organizing and funding my own trip to Egypt for 2 months. I am Certified for First Aid/CPR/AED, and am currently enrolled in college to become a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). I plan to further this education after graduating in March 2015 to become a Licensed Vocational Nurse.
Personally, I was raised in the country on an animal farm. I love nature and the outdoors, respecting all living things and the ecosystem we all contribute to. I am very deeply rooted in where I come from. My values of living in voluntary simplicity help to keep me open, understanding, and curious. I believe I make a difference in this world by simply existing to touch the lives of others in a positive way. Some of my core values are friendship, creativity, self-respect, science, and music.
I look forward to providing you with great companionship and care.
